National Recovery Month Draws To Close

The Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration has set aside September of each year to be designated as National Recovery Month.

In doing so, the goal of SAMHSA is to demonstrate to the public that recovery from addictions is attainable.

“I think many people have the idea that addiction recovery is a pipe dream,” begins a spokesperson for Mountainside Drug Rehab and Alcohol Treatment Center . “I believe that one of the reasons for this notion is that relapse stories are often highlighted in the media, and the stories of long term addiction recovery aren’t brought to light as often. Because of this, the public gets the idea that relapse is almost always a given in the life of a recovering addict. That’s simply not true. Long term sobriety is possible to achieve, provided that an individual wants to get sober and provided that they participate in a drug rehab program that provides individualized addiction treatment – i.e. an individualized treatment program that is designed specifically for them and that addresses the challenges that they personally face as they get sober.”

Individualized holistic drug rehab has proven to be one of the most effective means of treating a person suffering with addiction. If you feel that a loved one is struggling with addiction, Mountainside Drug Rehab and Alcohol Treatment Center can help with professional intervention services that are specialized to each person’s unique situation.

Mountainside Drug Rehab and Alcohol Treatment Center is a modern drug rehab facility that is skilled in serving a variety of clients with various addictions and in varying stages of their addiction. The caring, compassionate team is made up of licensed and certified social workers and counselors who have extensive experience and specialty in the addiction treatment field. In addition, the staff includes a Nurse Practitioner, as well as a Registered Nurse, both of whom also have specializations and experience within the field of addiction treatment and alcohol rehab.

Mountainside also provides services for those individuals who come to them with dual diagnoses and require the services of a Psychiatrist to help conquer the unique challenges that dual diagnosis brings.

For the past 13 years, Mountainside has established itself as an innovator within the addiction treatment field, and the treatment modalities Mountainside utilizes are regarded as among the most cutting-edge approaches in helping individuals to get, and to remain, sober. As a result of their unique, innovative approaches to addiction treatment, Mountainside has become the model for the addiction treatment field.

The program, along with its professional addiction treatment team, have earned national recognition and resulted in Mountainside being invited to Washington by the White House to meet with the White House Drug Czar, John P. Walters, for an in-depth meeting on what makes its program so successful. These accolades did not go unnoticed within the addiction treatment field and resulted in the adoption by many throughout the country of a more holistic approach to drug addiction treatment.
